Seen on X this afternoon. I could not agree more!

Holly Renee posted this on FB and I am here for it. Let me know if you agree with her attitude?
“If you think it’s so easy for women to just go get an ID to vote, you’re speaking from privilege.”
I’ve heard ENDLESS amounts of comments about my privilege.
You know what? I am privileged. And so are YOU! Because YOU are in AMERICA. You have the freedom to pick yourself up, go out into society, get your freaking dang documents from the courthouse and the DMV LIKE I HAD TO DO WITH MY PRIVILEGE, and do what needs done! And THEN, you will go vote in a fair, free, secure election, in the land of the free! What a blessing?!
Not everything is super easy and free. That doesn’t make you a victim. GET UP. Figure it out! Ask questions. Save some money each week if that’s what you TRULY need to do because you just can’t figure out how to pay for this stuff.
This is America. Equal opportunity. Bust your ass. Blood, sweat, and tears. That’s how America was made. And keep up the blood, sweat, and tears until you make it!
For the LOVE OF GOD, stop crying!!!! You can do it!
Nothing like hearing strong, independent, empowered women hyperventilating over not being able to figure out how to get a frigging ID.
Spare me!
Thank you for coming to my Tough Love Ted Talk.

The whole victim mentality is probably the worst disease that has ever hit this Country.

I have long held that the Bill of Rights is an inappropriately titled document. The document’s intent would be better understood if it were instead titled the Bill of Responsibilities.
We do not have the right to freedom of speech. We have a responsibility to make our voices known in a clear and concise manner as we participate in the animated discussions of a free republic.
We do not have the right to bear arms. We have the responsibility to maintain the strength needed to defend and protect our selves, and our future, should we someday face a tyrannical government.
We do not have the right to vote. We have the responsibility to participate in the electing of our fellow countrymen to best represent us.
As with anything in life, responsibilities require effort. They are time consuming, and they may not be convenient. The rewards for taking responsibilities seriously are what make it all worth while, worth the effort.
